In Terra, she is a hunter and a bad woman.

Not yet...

Not yet!

Almost like a last glimmer of life, Lappland's eyes became clear again.

But in this clarity, a somewhat terrifying aura flickered in her eyes, and the strong light and shadow formed a sharp contrast with the scarlet in Celinina's eyes.

Standing behind the two people at this moment were two unusual beings...

She struggled and grabbed with her hands, trying to pull Cellinina away.

And it was this random waving that caused her hand to suddenly grab the girl's lower abdomen.

This, like a subconscious reaction, stimulated Cellinina.

Her body stiffened almost instinctively.

The original force also stopped...

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lappland struggled hard to break free from the other party's restraints, fell to his knees, and couldn't help gasping for breath.

"Cough cough cough..."

The severe lack of oxygen made her cough uncontrollably, and the blood from the broken wound on her arm kept oozing out, making her body weak.

But at the same time, a strong feeling surged into her body.

A strong desire to fight occupied her mind.

She couldn't help but turn her head, and her eyes gradually emitted a silver light.

Weird... twisted...

But soon, her eyes became clear.

Just behind her, a tall woman was standing quietly behind two people.

Looking over here silently...

……

Half an hour ago.

"these are?"

Maria herself is not very willing to continue to accept Lappland as a child...and the reason is that Maria really has things to do now.

But at this time, the Saluzzo family gave her a reason that was hard to refuse.

"These... are things that the Saluzzo family has been diligently collecting since its founding."

Saluzzo slowly placed a roll of documents in front of Maria. The seemingly harmless head of the family, at this moment, showed an indescribable pride.

He knew that he was not as good as the family heads of all generations, but he also knew that since he was chosen for this position, he must do everything he can!

"Ever since Saluzzo first established the family, we have been secretly investigating everything in Syracuse."

As the man spoke, his fingers gently stroked the ancient history recorded from generation to generation.

But when Maria opened one of the letters, she found that it contained a story recorded in the first person by the recorder... The recorder seemed to know that these things would eventually become a secret, so in order to reduce his own self-perceived "objectivity" as much as possible, he directly adopted the most subjective method and recorded everything he saw, studied, and investigated.

They don't use any self-made speculations at all, and all the answers are described with cold numbers.

[Of the eighty-three people questioned, those living in the Volsinian area did not believe this story, while fifty-three believed it was a lie and that family feuding had caused the deaths of their relatives.]

The official death toll is 34, but we have interviewed and investigated approximately 78 people, most of whom are ordinary workers. Background checks are currently underway...

[The Wolf Lord is behaving abnormally, the situation is unnatural...]

They did not leave their names behind... In the long river of history, they may have their own achievements, but most of them are unknown, no one cares about their arrival, just as not many people remember them after they leave.

But it is this group of people who take over the baton from generation to generation and write history in their own way.

Most of the things they record are insignificant, or natural things, which are natural events with low probability.

But there were also some things that made Maria notice something unusual...

But this record will change the history of Syracuse forever!

All they did was prepare the soil.

And Maria will plant the seed with her own hands...

"These……"

Maria raised her head and looked at the man in front of her.

"The first generation head of the family was a genius... Although I have never met him, nor have I read any of his literary works, there is no doubt that he was a genius..."

The current head of the Saluzzo family clenched his hands, his expression a little restrained.

"Since he founded the Saluzzo family, he has secretly passed down a message."

"Syracuse... This is not the Syracuse of the Patriarch, nor is it the Syracuse of the Wolf Lord..."

"A long time ago, I didn't know what this sentence meant."

"But a few days ago, my daughter, Laplande, encountered something strange."

"I know this idea may be a little ridiculous, but I think... he might be right."

The weak head of the family raised his head and looked at Maria in front of him seriously.

"Syracuse... there's still something in there, right?"

“…” Maria was silent.

She gently put the document down, folded her hands, placed them on her raised knees, and looked at the other person.

The unpredictable attitude made the two family heads feel restrained.

But even so, Saluzzo continued.

"It could be a force, a monster, or even just a natural event... I don't know what it is, but I know you've returned at this time. It must be for this reason, right?"

Saluzzo looked at Maria in front of him with some expectation in his eyes.

To be honest, he didn't want all this to be true, because it meant that there were too many secrets on this land called Syracuse... Once he came into contact with it, he didn't know what kind of reaction would occur in the end.

But on the other hand, he hoped that all this was true.

It has been countless years since the Saluzzo family was founded. Countless people have dedicated their lives to such a possibility... Perhaps it is a bit selfish to say this, but he does not want their efforts to become a joke.

The reason why he chose to explain all this to Maria at this time was because of what his father told him before he left.

"That old bastard Salvadore... he's a crazy gambler. Even if the odds are one in ten thousand, as long as he thinks the payoff is big enough, he'll bet everything he has... If it were just him, it would be fine, but he's a leader... an exceptional leader, even better than me. He can rally countless people to race towards hell with him!"

"And the person who could make him stand in awe... was only one person, a woman you absolutely cannot mention in Syracuse..."

He felt that he would never forget the expression on his father's face when he was telling him these things. The complex emotions of silence, embarrassment, relief and helplessness mixed together made him doubt for a moment. Was the man in front of him really the one who was strategizing?

After learning about what Maria did to Syracuse, he realized that the vigilance of the older generation was justified.

For a man who has the ability to destroy Syracuse at any time, no one can be too careful.

But... he no longer had enough time to understand such an existence.

Lappland's condition these days, what happened a few days ago... everything made him realize that something was brewing in Syracuse.

At this very moment, the war between the family and the Gray Hall is about to break out.

All the pressure poured out, and he was just a patriarch who had just taken over the family, with a large number of subordinates who did not obey him, and he himself had no talent...

At this time, he could do nothing but look forward to Maria.

His words were very direct, and he was almost saying Maria's name.

But these words made the head of the Bellone family stunned.

But Maria understood it all.

She was silent for a long time, then gently stroked the documents in front of her with her hand.

"what do you want……"

"Eh?"

"Your information is valuable... I won't take it away like a bandit, so... state your request."

Maria leaned back slightly in her chair, her eyes calm.

She really follows her own principles from the bottom of her heart, and even now that she can no longer be called a human being, she still follows all of this.

Calm and elegant...

……

"Lappland...is that so?"

Looking at the girl in front of her who was still in a daze, Maria spoke softly.

She walked forward slowly, ignoring Celinina who was stunned beside her, and walked silently to the girl, stretched out her hand, and touched her face intentionally or unintentionally.

After frowning slightly, she didn't say much, but looked at him again.

"Lapland Saluzzo..."

"Yes, it is!"

Seeing this dream-like woman appear before him again, Lappland stuttered a little.

But her good upbringing allowed her to quickly come to her senses and look at the woman in front of her seriously.

"Last time...thank you!"

"……Last time?"

Maria looked at the other person, her eyes narrowed slightly.

"Do you remember what happened that night?"

"Ok?"

When Lapland saw that Celinina did not make any attacking moves, he relaxed his shoulders slightly, and then looked at Maria with some surprise.

"Of course I remember."

"...Your will is stronger than I thought."

Having said that, Maria hesitated for a few seconds, and instead of continuing to caress the girl, she slowly withdrew her hand and looked at her seriously.

As soon as she realized that her blood in Celinina's body was out of control, she rushed over immediately...

The blood she used for Cellinina's blood therapy was all her own, and it had been refined through three different methods. Logically speaking, its influence on a person's personality should have been close to zero.

But even so, Celinina still lost control...

There is only one possibility.

She was facing another being that held the power of a superior.

After coming here, Maria also realized what was happening.

Lapland...this ignorant but reckless girl.

After Maria had her first fight with the superior of this land, the other party unexpectedly broke into the final battlefield.

Although the power of other superiors was absorbed by Maria, there were still some fragmented bits and pieces, like breadcrumbs, that were absorbed by the girl.

Logically speaking, such a small thing will not bring much change to a girl.

But...Maria still underestimated the plasticity of the people in this world.

Just a little bit was enough to activate some hidden talent of the other party.

This made Maria alert and she prepared to completely clean out the remnants of the superior's power in the girl's body.

but……

Looking at the girl in front of her with clear eyes, Maria narrowed her eyes silently.

perhaps……

There is another way to go...
